This Leading Practice document is based on worldwide input that has proven to reliably lead to the desired result of an effective and efficient utilization of MACD process.

All rights reserved.Cisco ConfidentialKTN0501_MACD Leading Practice_v1.0 What is MACD?  MACD is a collaborative data management process between the Customer and Cisco to keep Cisco abreast of the changes in the Customer’s network, enabling Cisco to provide the required level of service.  It includes defining or establishing an end-to-end processing model needed to ensure the people, process, and technologies are identified in order to support the process.  This process considers a number of factors including; business models, service levels, transaction volumes and processing cycle-times. Move, Add, Change, or Delete

All rights reserved.Cisco ConfidentialKTN0501_MACD Leading Practice_v1.0 Pre-requisites for an effective MACD Contract Knowledge: The service contract owner (Partner/Customer) has a good understanding of their current Cisco service contract(s). Governance of Data: The Partner/Customer understands that their service contract data governs two different contract areas: Contract pricing – which describes how the customer will reimburse Cisco for service coverage Contract service delivery – which describes the level of service, the installed locations, and the specific products that are covered for service. Asset Management: The customer has access to asset management information on all equipment that should be covered under the service contract, and is aware of equipment moves, adds, changes, and deletions at the necessary level of granularity. Change Management: The customer understands their responsibility to inform Cisco when equipment changes have occurred. This includes physical reconfigurations including the addition or removal of a card/component, equipment moves, equipment “refreshes”, coverage level changes, and when the customer wishes to terminate service for a piece of equipment. The following customer pre-requisites are required in order to apply the Cisco MACD leading practices:

All rights reserved.Cisco ConfidentialKTN0501_MACD Leading Practice_v1.0 Scope: The documented process only applies to engagements that have been approved for SCMP, that restrict use of a collector to the initial discovery and NOT for any on-going MACD. The customer is expected to use their existing asset management system and network management personnel to track changes in their network, after the initial utilization of a collector. The changes submitted to Cisco will be the “deltas” in their network as oppose to the snapshot of their network. Whenever “Customer” is referred to, it assumes the following: 1.Partner 2.Partner/Customer 3.End Customer If there are no Support team associated within the account, the Account Team will assume that role. Assumptions:
